* Several years ago, one could find GIJoe action figures with voice chips that said things like "Yo Joe!", "ATTAAACK!", and "Vengeance is mine!", and {{Barbie}} [[strike:action figures]] dolls with voice chips that said things like "Let's go shopping!", "Math is hard!", and "Will we ever have enough clothes?" Inevitably, the Barbie Liberation Front went to Toys "R" Us, bought a bunch of each, and swapped the voice chips between the Joes and the Barbies. ''And then returned them all to the store.'' One may logically presume that HilarityEnsued.
** Referenced in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Lisa asks her friends whether there isn't something wrong with what their talking [[{{Expy}} Malibu Stacy]] dolls say[[hottip:*:referring to the terribly sexist and demeaning phrases]]. One girl responds, "There's something wrong with what ''my'' Stacy says"; when she pulls the string, we hear "[[Franchise/{{Spider-Man}} My spidey sense is tingling -- anybody call for a web-slinger?]]"

Sinkhole of a subjective trope. Opinions don't go in main pages

**** It was a chip manufacturing defect. However, many sound books do go berserk when their battery is run down, either starting to sound demonic, or cut off the speech halfway through. The latter can cause the book to say some pretty shocking things. Oh, by the way, said Elmo book was from the same publisher as the infamous Lion King sound book. You know, the one with the defect that may cause the book to say something that sounded like "Squashed bananas up your ass" if you time your button presses right.
* Mike Motzart, that toy review guy from [=YouTube=], LOVES this trope and exploits it in many of his videos. Some of the exploits demonstrated have been fixed by toy manufacturers in subsequent revisions. His Leapfrog table exploit only worked on older models featuring the character "Lily" which had a compartment flap that came off very easily, said exploit involved removing the flap and toggling a switch rapidly to result in something that sounded like a ClusterFBomb. Newer models featuring the character "Dot" are unaffected as said flap is now molded in and is impossible to remove without breaking it off by force.
